Dearest Sallie;
Your captains are lovely; well done "king of the rock"(^_^)v Wonderful zoom for the "SATURDAY CRITTERS"
In Japan, turtules called "Trachemys scripta (they have red ears and get rather big when grow up)" are used to be sold a lot at the festival stalls. Due to their high fertility, we see them a lot in the river and the pond now. (kind of bacame the trouble now)

Sending you lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my dear friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
